Liberia is taking steps to make its electoral system more inclusive, with a focus on ensuring that women and persons with disabilities can participate fully in the democratic process. The National Elections Commission has trained 79 officials on gender equality and disability inclusion, as part of efforts to implement its Gender Equality and Social Inclusion Policy, with support from UN Women and the United Nations Development Programme.  To discuss these efforts and the drive towards more accessible and representative elections in Liberia, we're joined by Dr Abul Hasnat Monjurul Kabir, UN Women Country Representative in Liberia.
